Daily Devotions for Die-Hard Fans: Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets com-bines the great passion of the Tech fan with the grand passion of the fan of Christ in one set of devotions. The result is a book that is fun while it provides a time of reflection about God and your faith.
- A tractor and a horse helped make Durant Brooks the greatest punter in Tech history.
- John Salley received a scholarship because he was tall and Tech was desperate, not because he was a great player.
- Paul Johnson learned about hard work when he was only 12 years old.
- The player who pulled off the 'Miracle on Techwood Drive' wasn't even supposed to be on the field.
- The greatest women's tennis player in Tech history wasn't highly recruited and had to fight to make the team.
These stories and more are recounted here. Also appearing are Bobby Dodd, Roger Kaiser, Shawn Jones, Eddie Lee Ivery, Mark Price, Calvin Johnson, and many others. Their stories - along with legendary games, improbable victories, and historical events - are told with a twist: They are all tied to God's story.
Have fun! Have faith! Go Jackets! Go God!
